Reviews for villa in Crete, vacation villa rental in Almyrida,
Sophia's House
Rate :
This lovely intimate villa is situated on a hill near the seaside resort of Almirida. We stayed here in September 2008 and september 2009 and we absolutely loved it. It was cozy and comfortable and the views from the terraces and the pool were fantastic. It was not hard to find with the final directions that we received from Frankie Miles who takes care of this villa. This lady was a big help and she is also an expert on this part of Crete. She wrote a very good book about the things to see, the places to go to, the restaurants that are worth visiting, how to get there step by step, and really everything you would want to know: an amazing job. Besides of being 100% a lady she also made us laugh because of her good sense of humour. Frankie, you are a treasure! The villa had everything you could wish for: amazing views from the terraces and the pool, a beautiful bathroom, a living space with comfortable couches, a dining table and chairs and three bedrooms with extra large extra comfortable beds with loads of pillows. The beds were over two meters long because I could fit in without any problems and without my feet sticking out (yes people, I am a tall, tall guy). I loved this place because it felt so homely and everybody was feeling so happy in it. It makes you want to buy your own villa on the island.
